Operation Cue
August 6 will mark the 60th anniversary of the birth of the atomic age - the bombing of Hiroshima. These videos (left sidebar) from 1955 show the government's attempt to gauge the effects of a bomb on everyday American life. Among other things, they built various styles of houses - furnished and stocked them with food, appliances, and mannequins. It's bizarre and sobering.
